50+ Wellbeing Support

Our aim is for older LGBTQI+ people to live happy, healthy and well-connected lives.

This service provides tailored wellbeing support, information and guidance to LGBTQI+ people aged 50+, living in the West Midlands area, that is inclusive and understanding of the community’s needs and is designed to empower older people to improve their emotional wellbeing.

Older LGBTQI+ people can experience social isolation, loneliness, discrimination and lack of respect.

One-to-one support

The one-to-one sessions provide a relaxed, non-judgemental and safe space for you to explore what might be affecting your wellbeing, and work towards solutions.
